Unfairly maligned. Not the worst to wear our shirt in recent times by a long way. Thanks for some fine performances early in the season when the rest of the midfield had gone awol. We would not have as many points now had you not played so well in some matches. Enjoy the money…

Agreed, Dar…Played in a much deeper role than he was used to, had a few poor games, a few average games, one or two decent games, yet always gave his all, has never tried to hide from his critics and conducted himself with dignity on and of the field.
